Very Quick Update..

Paul and I met with the Perinatologist on Wednesday. He did a throw ultrasound and found that the baby is a BOY for sure and that it is fine and healthy. He weighs 5lbs 2oz which is in the 34% so perfect. He also has hair :) They were worried he might be big from the diabetes but he isn't. I meet with him again April 15th he will do another ultrasound and then we will figure out delivery plans. I go in every week to the hospital for stress tests as well. That's about it for now. I'll keep you posted when i find out more!

Disney on Ice!!!

We took Lexi to Mickey and Minnies Magical Adventures on Ice. She was so excited to go. The whole time we were there she had a huge smile and was in heaven. She was such a big girl and knew exactly what was going on. At one point Tinkerbell drank some poison milk and everyone had to clap their hands to make her feel better. She STILL talks about that and how she made Tinkerbell better. She clapped and sang and every time mickey and Minnie would leave the stage she would yell BYE BYE! She is seriously the cutest sweetest girl in the world!

Quick Update...

So I thought I would do a quick pregnancy update. Last Monday I was told I have gestational diabetes. So they had me meet with a dietitian and gave me a monitor to prick my finger 4 times a day. So i did that for a week, went in and met with the dietitian again and found out my fasting blood sugar level is high. Which means its a hormonal thing. My blood sugar gets really low during the night so my body lets out its own sugar but to much. So they put me on this medicine i take once in the morning. Yesterday was the first day i took it. They told me they would give me a higher dosage and if my blood sugar gets to low to cut the pill in half. So yesterday i tool it and my blood sugar level got to 72 and stayed there no matter how much sugar i ate. It made me feel VERY shaky and light headed. It really actually scared me. Today i cut the pill in half and i haven't had to many problems, so far. Anyways, other news they did another ultrasound on March 9th. They wanted to make sure the placenta moved since it was partial privea, which it did so i don't have to have a csection for sure. Still no BOY for sure. He is breached and facing in. So his lil bum is below my pelvic bone so he couldn't see anything. The doctor said there is still plenty of time for him to turn but if he doesn't he will try to move him by pushing on my stomach. If he wont turn then i will need a csection. I have another appointment on Monday so hopefully everything going great. I will keep you informed as i know more.

"I makin Mommys Special!"

Lexi is obsessed with "helping" mommy cook! Every time I'm making breakfast, lunch and dinner she wants to be right there with me in the kitchen making water.. which she calls "Mommy's Special!" She SO cute and i love every minute of it even when i have to clean up the sometimes HUGE mess. (that's why we only use water) Its amazing how they want to be just like you. I hope she stays this age FOREVER!! I guess i can always hope right?!?!

Sick lil girl..

Last Saturday-Sunday Lexi had a temp of 102. She was sooo sweet and would cuddle. Here is a couple cute pictures of her falling asleep holding Daddies arm how cute!

I'm grateful it was just like a 24 hour cold and nothing worse. There has been bronchitis and a few other things going around!!

Lexi is missing someone....

A quick update.... Lexis good friend Quinn moved like a week or so ago and she has been sad ever since. Thinking that she is only 2 i would have never imagined some of the things shes said to me.

One: Quinn move .. I sad mommy, i give Quinn kisses!

Two: Outside.. She starts taking of running full speed saying i go to Quinn's house!!

Three: Any phone she sees she picks up and says I call Quinn mommy!

Four: I miss Quinn!

Five: Lexi what do you want to do, "I go to Quinn's new house!!"

I didn't think she would get it but i now know she realizes something isn't right. Here are a few pictures of some fun times with Quinn!! Needless to say he only moved across the freeway, so its only a quick trip to go see him!

Happy Valentines Day!!

Of course I didn't take many pictures at all this year of valentines day, but i did manage to get a cute one of Lexi! Valentines day was a hectic day but a fun one! In the morning we ended up running a few places but after that we hung out with each other at home, the mall, and a few other places. Lexi had a blast on the carousel at the mall and kept saying Happy Valentines Day, i get a present!!! It was cute! We gave her a heart lollipop bouquet and she thought she was in heaven! I love that she is SO happy with the little things, shes my sweet lil girl!!

Every time we go to my parents Paul ALWAYS asks for pretzel rolls from this place in mifflinburg! Knowing they are Paul's favorite I was searching the Internet for a recipe or debating whether or not to have my mom overnight some to me for him for Valentines day! I called my little brother who is a great cook and little did I know he had a recipe for them!!! They turned out soo good and were really simple to make! Paul was a pretty happy camper and I think he ate a dozen of them in an hour!! He thinks he needs a fresh batch of these a day! HAHA!
